What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundGastric mucosal hypertrophy, also known as Menetrier's disease (MD), is more common in men over 50 years of age, and the cause is unknown. The symptoms of the disease are atypical, mostly accompanied by hypoproteinemia and edema, and sometimes accompanied by symptoms such as epigastric pain, weight loss, and diarrhea. Most experts believe that the site of the disease is mainly located in the fundus of the stomach and the body of the stomach. We found that the site of the disease in this patient involved the antrum of the stomach. CASE SUMMARY: We introduced the case of a 24-year-old woman who had repeated vomiting for 5 d and was admitted to our hospital. After various examinations such as computed tomography and pathology in our hospital, the final diagnosis of the presented case is MD. The salient feature is that the mucosal folds in the fundus and body of the stomach are huge and present in the shape of gyrus. The greater curvature is more prominent, and there are multiple erosions or ulcers on the folds. The patient did not undergo gastric surgery and did not undergo re-examination. She is drinking Chinese medicine for treatment, and her vomiting and abdominal pain symptoms have improved. This disease is relatively rare in clinical practice, and it is easy to be misdiagnosed as gastric cancer, chronic gastritis and gastric lymphoma,
conclusionMD can occur in the antrum, it is necessary to raise awareness of the disease and reduce misdiagnosis.
